#InterviewWithTheVampire Season 2 ❤️🩸
Don't claim to own any of the material.
Just Having Fun

[@HaronidMuse]

Sam Reid is a complete pleasure to watch! 😍 Sam Reid and Assad Zaman did a wonderful acting job! ❤

[@EM-mw2qr]

They speak to each other just using their eyes. They don't even have to say a word.

[@lilianadoval8927]

Armand is right: "we are all in love with Lestat, he has that effect on everyone".

[@ksyusm3933]

Yes we're❤❤❤ but I'm enjoyed this😊😊😊

[@bartolomeestebanmurillo4459]

"Using his dark gift for his own vanity!" We haven't gotten to the vampire Lestat part but you know he's going to have a lot of fun with social media!

[@struggleskywalker1025]

That is terrifying and exciting all at once

[@patriciapryke6577]

I can’t stop looking at Sam Reid. They are all gorgeous, but he is exquisite. I hope he gets more and more screen time. One of the best actors I have ever seen.

[@alexie5201]

My thoughts exactly. The moment I saw him in S1, I knew his portrayal of Lestat is gonna be the death of me lol. And my admiration for his talent only grew since then.

[@samf.s.7731]

Well, since the next season is going to be the adaptation of TVL, I'm guessing what you hoped for will happen

[@hello.Hello.HELLO_U.]

@@alexie5201 Same.

[@jb8280]

I don’t know who Sam Reid was before, but he IS Lestat. My gawd his performance is masterclass…

[@HaronidMuse]

💯💯💯 Agree!!!

[@alexturnbull2615]

I knew him from a few things like the film Belle, you should give that a watch, it's very good and other shows like The Astronauts Wives Club and then I looked up more stuff he was in and i found that he was so underrated so when I heard they were doing this show and he was playing LESTAT AND that Jacob was gonna be Louis, I nearly fell off my chair. I was so excited😊

[@HaronidMuse]

@@alexturnbull2615 I have watched Belle he is very good in it. I love him in The Newsreader and Lambs of God too. He is without doubt a brilliant actor. ❤

[@alexturnbull2615]

@HaronidMuse ahh yes I've seen the newsreader, I've only seen lambs of god through clips not the full movie, though but I'll watch it one day.😊

[@HaronidMuse]

@@alexturnbull2615 You won't regreat it. 😘

[@weirdkid951]

it's the subtle acting for me. lestat's prancing around at the beginning, but as soon as armand starts talking to him, that smile is gone. for a few seconds you can see him freaking out before pasting a smile back on and continuing his lines, but he keeps scanning the crowd, trying to figure out who is in his head. he sees armand, puts the cocky smile back on fully, but right before he turns, you can see how pissed he is. methinks this is reminding lestat of how magnus stalked and took him. brilliant acting

[@MariKintaph]

I’m completely blown away by Sam Reid. What an actor! I don’t think I’ve ever admired someone’s performance this much! Saw someone saying “Lestat is possessing him” and I think this is the truest truth. Extraordinary actor!!! All of them are brilliant but Sam is THE BEST

[@MuMu-fu7qe]

He's so cute prancing around 😂

[@Missyisapunkrocker]

Sam is SUCH an amazing actor. The entire show and actors are superb. Once it hits Netflix, I hope it hits the heights it deserves. Can’t wait for Sam to tell the story of Lestat in the 3rd season

[@kateo2006]

Not sure it will ever go to Netflix.

[@tameriz1280]

Exquisite acting by Assad, like damn, the YEARNING in Armand's eyes when he watches Lestat on the stage🔥

[@mekareactsandreviews3026]

Love him or hate him...He makes the show ❤

[@gaminonya7599]

Serial Killers are charismatic. That is why they can claim so many victims. Sam Reid plays Lestat to a tee!

[@onikabrereton4962]

Magnificent and sumptuous acting by Sam Reid. Why his Lestat is a sumptuous and indulgent feast. I absolutely adore it.

[@HaronidMuse]

100% agree!!! ❤️

[@ginnyjaneheart5634]

I adore how often they look right at the camera. At me.

[@margerycourtney2371]

This should carry a health warning 😂 l can’t breathe ! ❤

[@NicHudsonValley]

This scene is beautiful. I love Lestat and Armand's French; it sounds so romantic and the music was divine.

[@JordanVanRyn]

Lestat all decked up in his theater garb lives rent-free in my mind right now! I know we will get Season 3 with Lestat’s perspective!! I know we will!! ❤❤❤❤❤

[@CamJ95]

He is phenomenal. Can’t wait to see him tell his story in season 3!

[@wolfshadowism]

I would like to believe that last gesture Lestat made was a Amadeus reference lol

[@wiinterflowers4277]

I got that same vibe.

[@gbangellena]

I'm OBSESSED with this show!! The characters are all so passionate. It's really refreshing!!

[@erika9328]

Sexy wink 0:33 ❤ Im obsessed 🔥🔥🔥 No wonder why everyone is in love with Lestat 🥰🥰🥰

[@HaronidMuse]

I know right! 🥵😍💖

[@maryamAkbarpour-k1i]

The "come to me" will be the end of me ngl🔥

[@TaraThelen-lc6pn]

Me too

[@Angel-xd9lt]

Sam Ried was amazing in this and He was better Lestat than Tom Cruise was. I always was a fan of Anne Rice's Interview With A Vampire but this is great. Anne Rice would have loved this and Sam Reid spoke Italian and French and even learned how to sing and play the piano and he read all the books. I can't wait for this to come on DVD and Sam Reid went to London Academy Of Dramatic Arts. I can't wait to see what Sam does next. AMC has been killing it lately.

[@cherrellcampbell-street9500]

Sam, brillance personified

[@blackcatkyoto]

Only Sam Reid's Lestat can make me blush and giggle like a middle school girl 🤣

[@cheburashka7856]

Stavovske divadlo is not just a theatre, it's THE theatre! 😍 The last and only theatre that remained almost the same, since where Mozart performed here. 😱 Also, it was a film set for Amadeus by Milos Forman 🤩 P.S. Sam is gorgeous in this role, indeed! 👏

[@BlackRaven0211]

I would enjoy to SEE a full scene of Lestat doing that

[@CLNPG]

Ooh la-la, what vanity 😘

[@susanlinkins5897]

I loved this part of the episode.

[@mykitm7104]

I can’t wait for season 3 where we see the whole story of Lestat.

[@EM-mw2qr]

SO BEAUTIFUL!! ❤

[@RedRach82]

So you know how in GOTDragon’s Ser Crispy ass can’t get over the fact Rhenerya didn’t run off to live in poverty with him after some mediocre sex?? Armand is giving that vibe when he speaks of Lestat. Like…in this scene Lestat is just being an EXCELLENT Harlequin. He’s a showman and natural entertainer…nothing at all to to with him being a vampire, but Armand jumps right to…he uses his vampire powers in front of humans meeeehhh….

[@esaucordero7011]

My boy killed it❤

[@lexisisk8079]

I hope season 3 AND 4 is all about Lestat’s story. There’s too much to tell for just one season and I’m talking about his history not when he becomes a rockstar 🥰

[@vivianzenari8522]

Sam Reid is wonderful

[@minniemoo6956]

SO GOOD OMG

[@MultiRekrap]

I love Armand's eyes

[@GraceDavison-c4h]

I love the small freakout that he tries to mask as he hears Armand mindspeak to him for the first time and the anger and fear in his eyes as armand calls him a child of magnus. But as soon as he lays eyes on Armand(I think he senses him like Louis did when he and Armand first met thats why he knew where to look)And then he is back to confident and as the lestat we know and love.(The shift in Sam Reid's facial expressions in this scene from oozing confidence to the bearly masked freak out and back to confident and cocky,he is also I think showing the contrast of still young and naive lestat compared to the 160 something year old lestat of Louis P.O.V) This scene made me fall in love❤❤❤❤ with his very crazy very traumatised being

[@HaronidMuse]

Perfectly said! ❤️ how can we not fall in love with him? ❤️

[@HulatSaWala]

Brings back memories of Prince Poppycock on AGT.

[@PedroHenrique-ft9hs]

This is cinema

[@andreabrantley6951]

📺; I'M GLAD LESTAT(Sam Reid) POPS UP IN SOME OF THE EPISODES.🧛🏻‍♂❤👍🏼 I wasn't sure how much they would show Lestat, but I'm loving the back stories. So dude has always been cocky!...😏 / Armand tryed to son Lestat!... lol (but Lestat is not having that., That's probably why he took off for America.)

[@bellabana]

The only reason Armand went after Louis was out of spite and petty jealousy because Lestat used Armand to find out all his powers then he dumped him straight after. Armand and Louis were both a rebound for each other as they both couldn’t forget Lestat.

[@andreabrantley6951]

💭I've been wanting to talk to someone about the show since season 2 started!... 🎥"It's still the best show I've seen on TV!..."😎🏆👍🏼 (I miss Bailey Bass playing the role as Claudia, but the other young lady is doing a good job.) / 🎬'Lestat was right when he said the vampire's out there were vicious." - Claudia

[@anigredo]

I´m dead...

[@ferbies]

i think about this scene once a day

[@HaronidMuse]

Glad to know I'm not alone. 😘

[@GuleraZarnoski]

As much as I appreciate the changes, I wish they kept Magnus original background... He stole the dark gift after he was rejected by the coven literally because he was too old and too ugly, which was hilarious

[@darlene5216]

Oh Lord 😲🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵😀💕💕💕🥵

[@pupster4058]

where do you find these clips?

[@HaronidMuse]

AMC Plus.

[@slobbjiminie5965]

The episode is out already

[@samf.s.7731]

So there's a debate happening on reddit about whether or not Lestat did actually play a Harlequin. Some people say no, and that Armand made this up .. If you've read the book, then you know that he played Lelio, and that he didn't go back to the theater after being turned. He felt like he could drink his friends and boyfriend, and so he distanced himself from them.

[@HaronidMuse]

Probably are right, I think we all more or less can agree it was Armand's fanfic of Lestat. But something is sure he made him look Gorgeous!!! 😍😘

[@polinadantalion3485]

What's the soundtrack??

[@ginnyjaneheart5634]

What does he says in FRENCH?

[@NemoEtNihil]

Can any French speakers tell us what he's saying?

[@pikypix4852]

Pleasee, I’m also wondering!!

[@Tadaokomai]

I’m starting to think languages are perfect for genres French for romance Japanese fantasy action English a bit of both or horror since the lines consist mostly of woman screaming 😱 or moaning before dying

[@ginnyjaneheart5634]

Book is so much better. But even thus Lestat is good

[@arielslack7015]

Magnus was never Armand’s sire Magness actually created Marius who created Armand

[@arutlit62]

Marius is significantly older than Magnus. And the show does state that Magnus turned Lestat and Marius turned Armand

[@ZomBabeZoe]

Oh my!❤
